What types of cough products are available in the Duro-Tuss range?
The Duro-Tuss range includes formulations designed for dry coughs and chesty coughs. Liquids are commonly chosen for flexible dosing, while lozenges and tablets offer convenient options when you're out and about. Some products are also available in sugar-free varieties for diabetics or those who prefer to limit sugar intake. Each formulation is developed to target specific cough symptoms, making it easier to select an option that suits how your cough presents.
How do I choose a Duro-Tuss product for a dry cough versus a chesty cough?
A dry cough is often irritating and persistent, without mucus production. Formulations designed for dry coughs are intended to help calm the urge to cough and soothe the throat.
A chesty cough typically involves mucus, and these formulations are designed to help loosen and clear congestion from the chest. Identifying the type of cough you have will help guide your choice. If you’re unsure, our pharmacists can assist you in selecting an appropriate option.
Are there sugar-free Duro-Tuss options?
Yes, the Duro-Tuss range includes sugar-free options for people who prefer to avoid sugar or who need to monitor their sugar intake. These products provide the same cough relief as the standard formulations but are sweetened with alternative ingredients. When browsing our range, look for products labelled as sugar-free in the product details. If you have specific dietary requirements or questions, feel free to speak with one of our pharmacists for personalised advice.
Can children use Duro-Tuss products?
Some Duro-Tuss products are suitable for children, whilst others are formulated for adults only. It's important to check the product label for age recommendations and dosage instructions before giving any cough medicine to a child. You can explore our dedicated children's cold and flu section for more options. Products designed for children will clearly state the appropriate age range and dosing guidance. If you're unsure which product is suitable for your child, our pharmacists are available in-store and online to help you make a safe choice.
What is the difference between Duro-Tuss liquids and lozenges?
Duro-Tuss liquids are taken orally using a spoon or dosing cup and are often chosen for their ease of swallowing and flexible dosing. Lozenges, on the other hand, dissolve slowly in the mouth and can provide soothing relief over a longer period, making them convenient for use throughout the day. Both formats are effective, so the choice often comes down to personal preference and how you prefer to take your medicine. You may also choose to use both at different times.
